After a wide sympathy campaign... Iraqi girl Randa justifies to her mother and pleads to stop.

The story of the Iraqi mother and her daughter "Randa" went viral on social media platforms after a TV scene sparked angry reactions.

A video clip circulated showing the mother during a TV interview on a local channel, with her daughter standing beside her while the host was interviewing her.

When the mother was asked if the child was her daughter, she sarcastically answered using the Iraqi dialect word "jalha," meaning "ugly," then pushed her daughter away from the camera.

The mother's behavior sparked widespread criticism, with social media users attacking her for bullying and humiliating her daughter in front of the public.

Many questioned the psychological impact this situation might have on the child, while others praised the beauty of the girl, describing her as a "Sumerian queen."

In a surprising turn of events, the girl "Randa" appeared in a video, urging everyone to stop criticizing her mother.

The girl explained that her mother uses this expression affectionately at home, confirming that she did not want to appear on TV for personal reasons.
